It may come as a surprise to some that there are still
villages of people throughout the world that have been
unaffected by modern society. They live without running
water, electricity, sometimes even schools. Their heat
their homes, cook their food, do everything needed with
burning wood. They have no idea of how harmful the
carbon smoke is. Each family lives in a beautiful,
hand-chiseled stone houses with flower gardens. There is
no healthcare. The specific place we will be talking
about today is exactly as I have described to you. It is
a village in a remote valley in the Solu region of Nepal
named Basa. Our guest today, with 2 other adventurers
were only the third group of white people ever seen in
this village of farmers. First they asked for education
for their children, then electricity for their village.
It is an amazing story and an ever more remarkable
journey for our guest today. He is a lawyer from
Indiana, our home state at Your Life Matters. But I
truly believe more importantly he is a truly caring
person, he is a father, a husband, an author,
philanthropist and an educator who has won numerous
awards in his career. It is our honor to welcome to Your
Christian Life Matters Jeff Rasley.
